Angela Matemotja, a multifaceted individual, has made a name for herself in the entertainment industry as an actor and filmmaker, showcasing her talents in her independent feature film "Elevate", which she not only stars in but also wrote, directed, and produced. This cinematic masterpiece is now available on various platforms, including Amazon and iTunes.
Born Anjela Danielovna, Angela's name underwent a transformation after she relocated to the United States from Russia as a child. Since then, she has grown accustomed to being referred to as Angela, and has chosen not to correct anyone who addresses her by her original name.
With a unique cultural heritage that spans both South Africa and Russia, Angela often takes on roles that portray characters of Latin descent on the big and small screens.
As the founder of Matemotja Productions, Angela's mission is centered around cultivating a cinematic culture of compassion, one story at a time. Through her work as a producer, writer, and director, she aims to produce socially conscious films that shed light on the often untold stories of marginalized subcultures.
By embracing internationalism and highlighting the diverse social aspects of the world, Matemotja Productions seeks to inspire dialogue, foster understanding, and promote acceptance and compassion.
